Realistically, summer heat is the main ageing force on a Panorama City roof covering. Surface temperatures run far above the air reading, day after day, for months. Low-slope sections in Panorama City hold heat worst, which is why coatings and reflective membranes pay for themselves here. A light-coloured covering in Panorama City measurably lowers attic temperature and takes load off the air conditioning. Los Angeles County is no different.
